We are learning to know the difference between a letter, a word and a sentence

I am in the Matai reading group.

"I know a sentence starts with a big capital letter. I can point to it" said Ashton.

We are learning how to read back our writing

After writing time, we sit in a sharing circle. Here I am sharing my story with Bryn. 

"My story is I eat cherry on my table. I can point to words when I read my writing to him." said Ashton.

We are learning to describe what a celebration is

We had a school party to celebrate Elm Park School's 50th Birthday!   
Students, teachers and families met in the Auditorium and the teachers played games like musical chairs. Then we came back into our classrooms to have activities and play games.   

Here I am decorating biscuits in Room 6 with Mrs Tetupu. We used icing and lollies to create different shapes and patterns. 

We got to wear our crowns we made with Miss Lal! It was so much fun playing games and winning prizes.
